add INHERITED variable to all eclasses. this keeps track of what eclasses were inherited. e.g. INHERITED='kde-base kde base'. this will allow drobbins to take eclass mtime changes into account when deciding whether to refresh ebuild cache.

eclass update - removing old eclasses (debug,inherit,functions) for which support is in potage proper
(>=1.8.9_pre32). this breaks support for older portages i.e. profile 1.0_rc6 as warned on themailing
lists 2 weeks ago. the only change to all these ebuilds in the long list is removal of the redundant
". /usr/portage/eclass/inherit.eclass || die" line.

big commit that makes eclasses work wth both old portages (1.8.8, rc6 profile) and the new ones
(>=1.8.9_pre32, 1.0 profile). the latter have some parts of the eclasses in ebuild.sh. Now i ahve a
unified code base and commit changes easily.

Initial version of eclasses. :-)
If you're gong to play wih it:
1) wait for tomorrow, by then i'll have much more commited, including a README.
2) don't commit changes unless you know what you're doing
3) don't criticise unless you know what you're thinking
